I think that it is a video card dependant problem, though, because I noticed it mentioned that you might have this problem when switching screens in the documentation for my OS/2 video driver. Also, under OS/2 I have to use my vesa driver to get it to run in 256 color mode, which is kind of annoying, but I think that is a video driver problem too (not an executor problem). ||||| Jesse D.
